Pfizer-BioNTech and Sinopharm: A Comparative Study on Post-Vaccination Antibody Titers

COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) vaccines induce immunity through different mechanisms. The aim of this study is to compare the titers of specific antibodies in subjects vaccinated with either the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine or the Sinopharm vaccine. This prospective observational cohort inc...

The aim of this study is to compare the titers of specific antibodies in subjects vaccinated with either the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine or the Sinopharm vaccine. This prospective observational cohort included Jordanian adults vaccinated with two doses, 21 days apart, of either of the two aforementioned vaccines. Titers were collected 6 weeks after the administration of the second dose. Overall, 288 participants were included, of which 141 were administered the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, while 147 were administered the Sinopharm vaccine. Remarkably, 140 (99.3%) of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine recipients had positive IgG titers, while 126 (85.7%) of Sinopharm recipients had positive IgG (<i>p</i> < 0.001). The mean titer for IgG among Pfizer-BioNTech recipients was 515.5 ± 1143.5 BAU/mL, compared to 170.0 ± 230.0 BAU/mL among Sinopharm subjects (<i>p</i> < 0.001). Multivariable regression analysis showed that the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine positively correlated with positive IgG titers (OR: 25.25; 95% CI: 3.25–196.15; <i>p</i> = 0.002), compared with a negative effect of cardiovascular diseases (OR: 0.33; 95% CI: 0.11–0.99; <i>p</i> = 0.48) on IgG titers. In conclusion, fully vaccinated recipients of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine had superior quantitative efficiency compared to Sinopharm recipients. A booster dose is supported for Sinopharm recipients, or those with chronic immunosuppressive diseases.Rami AlqassiehAiman SuleimanSami Abu-HalawehAbeer SantarisiOmar ShatnawiLara ShdaifatAmjed TarifiMohammad Al-TamimiAbdel-Ellah Al-ShudifatHeba AlsmadiAhmed Al SharqawiHadeel AlnawaisehYara AnaswehFarah Abo DomaidahHaneen Abu JaberMohammad Rashid Al-ZarirIsam BsisuMDPI AGarticleCOVID-19vaccinePfizer-BioNTechSinopharmantibodytitersMedicineRENVaccines, Vol 9, Iss 1223, p 1223 (2021)
